The controller assigns default names (R-1, R-2, ...) and console ports
in request arrival order. A parallel batch fan-out lets thread scheduling
decide that order, so the first submitted node could end up as R-2.
Batches that rely on default naming (any node without a name) are now
created sequentially; batches with explicit names stay parallel. The
node_create tool description documents the ordering semantics and tells
callers to correlate nodes by node_id.
Splitting the file with keepends=False and rejoining with newlines
dropped the trailing newline of the last line (and every \r of CRLF
files), so returned content was shorter than the file on disk and did
not round-trip. Split with keepends=True and join the selected lines
verbatim; pagination semantics are unchanged.
Batch node/link creation collected results with as_completed, so the
response order followed completion rather than the submitted array and
callers could not correlate entries. Collect in submission order via
pool.map, and report batch deletes as status=success like every other
batch action (the message still says what was deleted).
Per-link markers on serial links need the WAN encapsulation (e.g.
DLT_C_HDLC) so the BPF compiles against the right link layer — the
REST API already accepts it, but the MCP tool never forwarded it.
Create passes it through; update ignores it (changing it would
invalidate the capture file), matching the REST schema semantics.
- Slim custom_gns3fy.py to connector-only Gns3Connector and rename to
connector.py; delete the unused Node/Link/Project dataclasses and
endpoint wrapper methods (~3000 lines)
- Move the MCP node/link handler implementations into
gns3_client/api_handlers.py as the shared REST client layer consumed
by both the MCP service and copilot tools; add available_filters
handler (exposed as link_available_filters MCP tool) and
build_gns3_ctx() for copilot callers
- Rewrite the tools_v2 node/link tools on top of the handlers: batch
lifecycle actions now run in parallel, node creation is a single
POST, project-wide status reads replace per-node GETs
- Port Project.nodes_inventory/links_summary aggregation into
project_inventory.py (output shape preserved) and rewrite the
topology reader / project info tools on it, dropping the unused
stats/snapshots/drawings calls
- Delete the dead mcp/nodes.py and mcp/links.py (NODE_TOOLS/LINK_TOOLS
had no consumers; __init__ imports handlers from api_handlers)
- Retarget mcp handler tests to patch api_handlers._get_connector and
replace test_custom_gns3fy.py with inventory contract tests
